I have bought all presents and wrapped most of them. In the Swedish tradition, I like to save some to wrap in the evening before Christmas Eve. I have sent out my cards and a box of gifts to a friend. House needs to be deep cleaned and decorated and then of course, hubby has to cook.

Ohhh.. what I wouldn't give for an old dollhouse like that. I seriously want an old one like that. And I love how you're using an old card rack to display your cards.. such inventiveness! I'm pretty much done prepping for things as we had to have our xmas early as our son left for Los Angeles for his wife's brothers wedding and to celebrate with her family on "the day". Just enjoying the lights.:¦:-·-:¦:-·-:¦:-·-:¦:-·-:¦:-·-:¦:-·-:¦:-·-:¦: *M*E*R*R*Y* *C*H*R*I*S*T*M*A*S*!*:¦:-·-:¦:-·-:¦:-·-:¦:-·-:¦:-·-:¦:-·-:¦:-·-:¦: ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

Let's put it this way I'm one person and a K9 and I haven't mailed the Christmas cards yet (they're addressed and sealed), I haven't wrapped the pile of gifts in the second bedroom...HOWEVER I have my little 4 foot tree up and decorated, I have my manger scene out where I can see it and ponder the real meaning of Christmas and I finally have my lights up around the front door (the wreath has been up since Thanksgiving but I've tweaked it a few times)! Excellent progress for me!

We can't have injuring himself like that ! if it's not the chimney, can he not use his magic front door key. I've sent my long distance letters off telling them the story behind the adventures of the year and looking forward to what they have to say this week. I've an armchair of furry snowmen and santas to position around the house.Unfortunately I'll be working for 6 hours on Christmas day this year and consequently will be celebrating the day after.I wish you and your family a very Happy Christmas.

Finishing shopping...listening to Christmas music with the doors open (that's a nice aspect of living in Florida this time of year)...and writing Christmas cards. I'm old school and love the tradition of sending a handwritten card. Looks like you and your friends do too!

I love Santa climbing in the window of the doll house!!I've actually been a little side-tracked here with the arrival of Summer, our new granddaughter. I can't seem to stop loving on her long enough to get anything Christmasy done. Maybe this week....

Sewing, of course. Will finish up tomorrow and make fudge with the grands. Wrap presents and bake on Thursday. Just a little bit of decorating in my small cottage. Somehow it all gets done. What a great idea to use a card rack for Christmas cards. Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas.

About Me

A transplant from the city trying to make a life in a small southern town....where everyone knows my business before I do. Known as a, "Farmchick", because I'm a little bit of farm and a lot of chick. Not famous in this small town, people just talk about me like I am.
Join me as I record small town life through the lens of my camera and reflect upon how the simple life, and a little rust, can really be a good thing.
